Amber Heard has taken to social media to announce the arrival of twins 'into the Heard gang'.

Earlier today (May 11) - aptly Mother's Day - the Aquaman star announced she's welcomed twins.

The 39-year-old is already mom to Oonagh Paige - who she welcomed on April 8, 2021.

In a post to her Instagram she shared a photograph of the babies' feet, alongside the caption: "Mother’s Day 2025 will be one I’ll never forget.

"This year I am elated beyond words to celebrate the completion of the family I’ve strived to build for years.

"Today I officially share the news that I welcomed twins into the Heard gang."

The post continues: "My daughter Agnes and my son Ocean are keeping my hands (and my heart) full.

"When I had my first baby girl Oonagh four years ago, my world changed forever. I thought I couldn’t possibly burst with more joy. Well, now I am bursting times three!!!

"Becoming a mother by myself and on my own terms despite my own fertility challenges has been the most humbling experience of my life. I am eternally grateful that I was able to choose this responsibly and thoughtfully.

"To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you. Love always, A x."

The post follows a statement issued by the star's spokesperson.

The spokesperson told People: "Amber is delighted to welcome the twins and complete her family.

"Mama and babies are enjoying every minute. And Oonagh is happily running the show."

The latest additions to Heard's family follow after she explained she would be having children 'on [her] own terms'.

During the announcement of her first child via surrogate in 2021, in a post to Instagram, the actor explained four years prior she 'decided [she] wanted to have a child'.

She continued: "I wanted to do it on my own terms. I now appreciate how radical it is for us as women to think about one of the most fundamental parts of our destinies in this way. I hope we arrive at a point in which it’s normalized to not want a ring in order to have a crib.

"A part of me wants to uphold that my private life is none of anyone’s business. I also get that the nature of my job compels me to take control of this."
